About us

Ian & Dennis were both apprentices during the years of timber boats. Using skills from those timber days & combining with the technology of todays materials they can build you a boat with the assurance that it will be the most riggid & true to shape boat avaliable today. Ian & Dennis both rowed for Sydney Rowing Club through to the late 70's winning many state & national titles including six Penrith Cups.

The most frequent asked questions

Question: Do you build boats for all sizes ?

Answer: Yes give us your height & weight & we will tailor make it for you.

Question: Why are your boats so reasonably priced ?

Answer: We have very little overheads. We do everything ourselves from building the boats through to answering phones accounting cleaning etc

Question: If we require boats urgently can you help ?

Answer: Because all our boats are custome made it would be very hard to have one made in a short space of time, but we would most certainly try

Question: Do we have a choice of colours ?

Answer: You can have a combination of several colours at no extra cost. We do recommend the hull be white for the ease of maintenance ie scratches etc

Question: Is there warranty ?

Answer: Yes 2 years on workmanship & materials

Question: What about the cost of delivery?

Answer: Normaly free on east coast Aus

We build 3 types of singles:

1} The elite racer: A combination of honeycombe, kevlar & carbon fibre, vacuum formed & guaranteed to be on or under minimum weight.

2} The racer trainer: This boat has a solid kevlar hull with honeycomb decks & cockpit
Only 4 kgs over minimum weight.

3} The trainer: Designed to take the roughest treatment. It has a solid kevlar hull with very strong sandwich cockpit & decks.

All our singles come with quick release anodised riggers.
